Bandai’s Gunpla festival “Gunpla Expo World Tour Japan 2012” will be held from November 22nd through the 25th at the Akihabara UDX AKIBA_SQUARE in Tokyo. Admission is free.
The event will be based around an “RG Celebration: No. 10” theme, with the RG Zeta Gundam taking center stage in an array of RG displays. Visitors will be able to see the RG Zeta Gundam’s transformation sequence in 1/1 scale on a gigantic screen.
There will also be plenty on exhibit for fans of Mobile Suit Gundam UC, Mobile Suit Gundam AGE, Mobile Suit Gundam SEED, and other series, plus the unveiling of the MG Nu Gundam Ver. Ka and new product announcements.
Last but not least, Japan’s champion in the Gunpla Builders World Cup 2012 will be crowned, with the survivors of Round 2 on display for attendee voting and final judging by Bandai’s panel!
Results will be announced on the event’s final day, November 25th, with an awards ceremony planned for the same day.
There will also be the yearly return of Gunpla color designs by celebs, a “Fun to build Gunpla” booth with live exhibitions by Meister Kawaguchi and Bandai model dev staff, and more!
